Green-card filing pattern in this occupation
Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 16 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.
Green-card follow-through: 100%
Of 7 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 0 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 493 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.
Reported a layoff in this occupation
In a green-card filing decided 2026-06-24, this employer stated it had laid off workers in Software Developers (NC) during the preceding six months. 3 such filings on record.Describes the period before that filing, not necessarily today. Unlike WARN notices this is occupation-specific and federal.
DOL often reclassifies their job titles
The Department of Labor assigned a different occupation than this employer requested on 54% of its 28 wage determinations — against a 18% norm. The occupation sets the prevailing wage floor.Reclassification is routine and can reflect genuinely hybrid roles; it is not by itself evidence of underpayment.
Files H-1B transfers
4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 316 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.
Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.
